Periodic Knots
|
| |
Hello, how can I find the quotient knot to a given knot? For example I got trefoil knot. Its quotient knot is the unknot, but how can I figure that out? Thanks for your help! Josef

characters for subgroups
|
| |
What is the relation between characters of a group and its subgroup? e.g. what is the relation between characters of E(8) [group] and E(7) and SU(2) [Sub-groups]?

direct image of a locally free sheaf
|
| |
Hi! Does anybody know is this statement right or wrong? f: Y->X - flat projective morphism E - locally free sheaf on Y Then f_* (E) is locally free. Zhenya

One-step reduction strategy for micro-lambda and extensionality in TRS
|
| |
Hello, Some time ago I exchanged a few emails with Prof. Barendregt on certain aspects of lambda calculus and the extensionality property. Prof. Barendregt suggested that I could write to J. Klop for clarification of some questions on explicit substitution and term rewriting systems. Unfortunately, professor Klop did not respond.... more »

F^\omega in Di Cosmo's presentation
|
| |
Hello, I have a question regarding Di Cosmo's presentation titled "A brief history of rewriting with extensionality", which is available using the following link: [link] Specifically, on page 8 the author refer to the system denoted as "F^ \omega". Unfortunately, I was not able to figure out the meaning of this... more »

Rooted trees and isometry classes for a ternary linear code
|
| |
I've just recently had a look at rooted trees and wrote up a short pedagogical note on the subject at [link] under "A Walk in the Woods with Cayley and Comtet". In item 3) of the note on page 7, I surmise (from some brute force calculations) a relation between certain forests of rooted trees and the isometry... more »

isometries + fixed point = 3-sphere
|
| |
I came up with a nice proof. Or possibly it's an embarassing poof. I skimmed over a bunch of articles on conjugate loci and didn't see this mentioned. Suppose there's a complete Riemannian 3-manifold M, with a lot of symmetry: there's an isometry group G(p) which fixes a point p and is transitive on the unit... more »

Fundamental group of PSp(2n,R)
|
| |
What is the fundamental group of the (real) projective symplectic group, PSp(2n,R). This group is defined as the quotient of the real symplectic group Sp(2n,R) by its center, Z_2: PSp(2n,R)=Sp(2n,R)/Z_2. From the homotopy sequence of the fibration 0->Z_2->Sp(2n,R)- ...either Z or ZxZ_2. But which one is it?... more »
